Problem conclusion

The license client code will err out if it finds a server in its
path that is older than 11.8, even though a server further down
in the path is not. To confirm this, have the customer check
the following and remove any older server versions from these
locations:
1. Value of RATIONAL_LICENSE_FILE environment variable
2. Value of LM_LICENSE_FILE environment variable
3. Content of ~/.flexlmrc
4. Contents of /usr/local/flexlm/licenses/license.dat
